What Is a DBMS? What Is a DBMS?
- (^) A very large, integrated collection of data.
- (^) Models real-world enterprise.
- (^) Entities (e.g., students, courses)
- (^) Relationships (e.g., Madonna is taking
CS564)
- (^) A Database Management System (DBMS) is a
software package designed to store and
manage databases.
Why Use a DBMS? Why Use a DBMS?
- (^) Data independence and efficient access.
- (^) Reduced application development time.
- (^) Data integrity and security.
- (^) Uniform data administration.
- (^) Concurrent access, recovery from crashes.
Files vs. DBMS Files vs. DBMS
- (^) Application must stage large datasets
between main memory and secondary
storage (e.g., buffering, pageoriented
access, 32bit addressing, etc.)
- (^) Special code for different queries
- (^) Must protect data from inconsistency
due to multiple concurrent users
- (^) Crash recovery
- (^) Security and access control
Purpose of Database Systems Purpose of Database Systems
- (^) In the early days, database applications were built directly on top of file systems
- (^) Drawbacks of using file systems to store data:
- (^) Data redundancy and inconsistency
- (^) Multiple file formats, duplication of information in different files
- (^) Difficulty in accessing data
- (^) Need to write a new program to carry out each new task
- (^) Data isolation — multiple files and formats
- (^) Integrity problems
- (^) Integrity constraints (e.g. account balance > 0) become “buried” in program code rather than being stated explicitly
- (^) Hard to add new constraints or change existing ones
Levels of Abstraction Levels of Abstraction
- (^) Physical level: describes how a record (e.g., customer) is stored.
- (^) Logical level: describes data stored in database, and the relationships among the data. type customer = record customer_id : string; customer_name : string; customer_street : string; customer_city : string; end ;
- (^) View level: application programs hide details of data types. Views can also hide information (such as an employee’s salary) for security purposes.
Summary Summary
- (^) DBMS used to maintain, query large datasets.
- (^) Benefits include recovery from system crashes,
concurrent access, quick application development,
data integrity and security.
- (^) Levels of abstraction give data independence.
- (^) A DBMS typically has a layered architecture.
- (^) DBAs hold responsible jobs
and are wellpaid!
- (^) DBMS R&D is one of the broadest,
most exciting areas in CS.
Instances and Schemas Instances and Schemas
- (^) Similar to types and variables in programming
languages
- (^) Schema – the logical structure of the database
- (^) Example: The database consists of information
about a set of customers and accounts and the
relationship between them)
- (^) Analogous to type information of a variable in a
program
- (^) Physical schema : database design at the
physical level
- (^) Logical schema : database design at the logical
level
Instances and Schemas Instances and Schemas
- (^) Instance – the actual content of the database at a particular point in time - (^) Analogous to the value of a variable
- (^) Physical Data Independence – the ability to modify the physical schema without changing the logical schema - (^) Applications depend on the logical schema - (^) In general, the interfaces between the various levels and components should be well defined so that changes in some parts do not seriously influence others.
Data Models Data Models
- (^) A data model is a collection of concepts for
describing data.
- (^) A schema is a description of a particular
collection of data, using the a given data
model.
- (^) The relational model of data is the most
widely used model today.
- (^) Main concept: relation, basically a table with
rows and columns.
- (^) Every relation has a schema, which describes
the columns, or fields.
Example: University Database Example: University Database
- (^) Conceptual schema:
- (^) Students(sid: string, name: string, login: string, age: integer, gpa:real)
- (^) Courses(cid: string, cname:string, credits:integer)
- (^) Enrolled(sid:string, cid:string, grade:string)
- (^) Physical schema:
- (^) Relations stored as unordered files.
- (^) Index on first column of Students.
- (^) External Schema (View):
- (^) Course_info(cid:string,enrollment:integer)
DATA BASE LANGUAGE DATA BASE LANGUAGE
Data Manipulation Language (DML) Data Manipulation Language (DML)
- (^) Language for accessing and manipulating the
data organized by the appropriate data model
- (^) DML also known as query language
- (^) Two classes of languages
- (^) Procedural – user specifies what data is
required and how to get those data
- (^) Declarative (nonprocedural) – user specifies
what data is required without specifying how to
get those data
- (^) SQL is the most widely used query language
Data Definition Language (DDL) Data Definition Language (DDL)
- (^) Specification notation for defining the database schema Example: create table account ( account_number char (10), branch_name char (10), balance integer )
- (^) DDL compiler generates a set of tables stored in a data dictionary
- (^) Data dictionary contains metadata (i.e., data about data)
- (^) Database schema
- (^) Data storage and definition language
- (^) Specifies the storage structure and access methods used
- (^) Integrity constraints
- (^) Domain constraints
- (^) Referential integrity (e.g. branch_name must correspond to a valid branch in the branch table)
- (^) Authorization
